The Gatherling (ギャザリング Gyazaringu) is a helper in Viva Piñata and Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise who will sell grown fruit and vegetables. Gatherlings are first available for hire at Level 12. You can hire a Gatherling for 924 chocolate coins. In Viva Piñata, hiring a Gatherling will unlock an Achievement. A Gathering's work hours are from 9am to 4pm.
A Gatherling can often cause problems by picking up produce that you are growing to attract piñata, or by not actually picking up produce meant to be sold. In addition, a Gatherling may incorrectly assume that there's no work for her when there are fruit on the ground and show a "No work" alert. In Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise, a Harvest Choices menu allows for choosing if the Gatherling is supposed to collect Fruit, Flower Heads, Produce, Seeds, and Vegetables, and any or all of the five options can be disabled.
An unhappy Gatherling will keep a portion of the sale price of the produce for herself. Paying her Chocolate Coins will make her happy. Watering a Gatherling will make her unhappy. Ordering her to pick up an item will also make her unhappy.
